About this cottage rental

Spectacular views, private boat dock, partial Air-conditioning, 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, Long Pond Cottage is located on the shore of Long Pond; a glacially formed lake. The largest lake on Mount Desert Island boasts miles of shoreline and spring fed fresh water. Unobstructed lake views welcome you at our cottage. Privately owned shoreline and Acadia National Park share this pristine lake. Hiking, biking, canoeing, kayaking, fishing, swimming and water sports are out your front door. The cottage sleeps 6 with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a full kitchen, BBQ, a deck at waters edge and a private boat dock are all included. Our family cottage is fully equipped for your family's convenience, including cable tv and WiFi. We welcome clean well behaved dogs who will love camp as much as their human companions. Our kitchen includes new appliances; stove and cooktop, microwave, toaster, blender, coffee maker and normal kitchen utensils. There are two bathrooms with tiled showers (one has a shower bench). There is also a new washer and dryer. Canoe and kayak rentals are available on the Lake. Our private dock can accommodate all manner of watercraft up to 22 foot fishing boats with its bumpers and cleats plus a swim ladder for easy access to the water. The entrance(s) and access to Acadia National Park are a few minutes drive. Within the Park, historic carriage paths, hiking trails, horseback riding, biking, and miles of Maine ocean shoreline await your adventures. Close to Bar Harbor, Southwest Harbor, and Northeast Harbor there are many restaurants offering something for everyone's taste. Our family favorites are the fresh lobsters, lobster rolls and everything blueberry. Organic produce, in season, is available throughout the island. A treasure of the island located between Seal Harbor and Northeast Harbor is the Little Long Pond leash free walking and hiking area donated by David Rockefeller. Each day enjoy the spectacular views from the deck or dock. No matter whether you choose to tour the island of Mount Desert, shop in the historic harbor towns, participate in ocean activities, each day you will come back to find families of loons, ducks, and bald eagles awaiting you. Allow time for your canoe or kayak trip to Rum Island, watching the sunsets and sunrises from our deck, viewing the stars at night, and your afternoon swim in the lake.

The cottage had gorgeous views and was the perfect size for our family. Mornings were spent fishing off the dock in the beautiful lake and enjoying some quiet time while having coffee. The cottage was spotless and Lori made sure we had everything we needed. We can’t wait to come back!

Long Pond Cottage provided a delightful home base for us and our pup. It was comfortable, well-equipped, and convenient to everything. Lori was super responsive and helpful. Being right on the lake was lovely and made kayaking easy and fun. We would definitely stay here again!

We spent a week at this beautiful place. The view of the lake is amazing. Such a peaceful spot. The house was immaculately clean and well stocked. The owners were very helpful and considerate. The beds were comfortable. The house is in a good location to cover all of MDI/Acadia National Park. We were able to drive to all nearby activities and then come back to the house for a peaceful evening on the lake. We had 4 adults on our trip and did not feel crowded. Highly recommend.

We recently stayed at Long Pond Cottage for a mother daughter vacation with our two dogs and it was everything we had hoped it would be and more. The house itself is the perfect size and very comfortable, with absolutley everything you could need. The natural light and views from the windows make the place feel surreal. Then add in the loons floating by and calling up and down the lake, we thought we were in heaven. The location is perfect with most of all major area attractions in Acadia and Bar Harbor only 15-20 minutes away! I cant recommend this vacation home enough and cant wait to return next year!

Lori was a super host - provided a bunch of good info prior to our stay and was quick to respond to a small issue while we at the cottage. Kitchen was well stocked (had access to everything we needed) and grill worked flawlessly. Beds were comfortable and heat worked well when needed. We had a fabulous stay - rented kayaks for the week and enjoyed exploring the pond - Rum island, sunsets, etc. The rental place is a short 10-15 minute paddle from the cottage, so no real need for delivery service, although it was offered. Dock at cottage made it easy to enter and exit the water. Hiked several trails in Acadia and all trailheads were within 15-30 min drive. We were there right around the new moon and night sky viewing was phenomenal from deck and dock. It was always nice to come back to peace and relative solitude of the cottage after a day of exploring. Lori was a great host and their cottage is a real gem!

One of our favorite places we’ve stayed… great view. Couldn’t ask for a better backdrop to bbq dinner each night. Sons caught lots of bass. Hiking all around us and plenty of places to go eat… fantastic cabin and area for vacation

Beautiful home right on Long Pond! Such a comfortable, quiet home. Communication with owner was above and beyond. Having everything on one level was so enjoyable- hard to find in Bar Harbor. Loved the individual thermostats. Furniture very comfortable and warm throws great for curling up to watch tv or sit out on deck. Kayak rentals at end of pond. Delightful vacation!!
